Immediately, Keyshawn Davis stated on social media that he shall be “unbelievably robust” on February 14th when he fights subsequent. Davis (12-0, 8 KOs) is anticipated to problem Denys Berinchyk subsequent for his WBO light-weight title at Madison Sq. Backyard’s Hula Theater in New York.
Davis doesn’t say how he’ll be stronger as a result of he’s not referred to as a puncher. He’s extra of a boxer, and the blokes he’s knocked out have largely been middle-of-the-road fighters. What Keyshawn is Berinchyk has an excessive amount of expertise to be overpowered by Davis, so it’s dumb for him to deal with that angle to win this combat. Berinchyk has overwhelmed many robust fighters throughout his years within the newbie ranks.
Keyshawn selected to not tackle his pal, WBC light-weight champion Shakur Stevenson, for his belt as a result of he didn’t wish to combat him. He believes he’ll defeat Berinchyk (19-0, 9 KOs) to seize his WBO belt after which use the title to get fights towards Gervonta Davis and Vasily Lomachenko. It seems like a pipe dream.
The stuff that Keyshawn comes up with seems like some wacky daydreaming with no probability of ever taking place in his profession and is totally unachievable. He’s not even attempting to place himself by way of the logical steps to get the combat with Tank or Loma by beating Andy Cruz or Edwin De Los Santos. He thinks that by beating Berinchyk, these well-liked stars will wish to combat him. The fights will simply come to him like gravity, forcing them into his lap with out taking dangers.
If Keyshawn does get his arms on the WBO belt, he’ll defend it towards no matter little-known contender High Rank can dig up for him, nevertheless it gained’t be Tank or Loma. That ain’t taking place.
The Backdoor Champion
These guys aren’t going to combat Davis, nevertheless it’s not as a result of they’re afraid of him. They’re each heading for retirement and can deal with well-liked fighters that informal boxing followers have heard of. Keyshawn is totally unknown to the casuals.
High Rank was fast-tracked by the 2020 Olympic silver medalist, Davis, who moved him right into a title shot with out having him work his manner there, combating any high contenders at light-weight, like Andy Cruz or Edwin De Los Santos. It’s known as the ‘Backdoor methodology’ that promoters use for fighters they don’t wish to take dangers with.
In the event that they believed in Keyshawn, they’d have examined him towards Cruz and De Los Santos. They clearly know what may occur to Davis if he fought both of these two skills, and it wouldn’t be good for him. It could be a replay of Keyshawn getting overwhelmed within the 2020 Olympics.
Subsequent time I’m in that ring, I’m going to be unbelievably robust.💪🏾 #feb14th⭐️
